Banditry: US trains Nigerian Air Force on civilian protection during military operations - Punch Newspapers

“This course was included as a part of the A-29 Super Tucano sale as part of the Defense Security Cooperation Agency’s “Total Package Approach” that includes not just hardware but spare parts, logistics, and training.

“Although the course was originally intended for the handful of commanders that would operate with the A-29, the Nigerian Air Force sent 20 commanding officers to this course, including 7 General Officers and the Deputy Director of Legal Services. Because this course was the first of its kind, DIILS Director, CAPT Ian Wexler, traveled to oversee the event and meet the officers.

“DIILS is the lead Department of Defense security cooperation resource for global legal engagement and capacity-building with international defense sector officials. “The DIILS instructors enjoyed a productive and professional interaction with the Nigerian officers and hope to continue this relationship and return for future engagements and courses.”

This is coming six days after The Nigerian Air Force began an investigation into fighter jet airstrike that allegedly killed civilians in ”Buhari village” in Yunusari Local Government Area of the state.

The graphic used for this article depicting Nigerian Air force planes can't be real, these look more like world war 2 spitfires, really in this age of jet engined aircrafts, we're still using propeller powered, it's unbelievable

Stop wasting your strength. Northern Terrorist will still hijack everything

I guess the ones always bombing civilians got their training from the talibans. They will still bomb civilians, done by those just trained by Americans and deny it.

What's banditry. Terrorism ! Terrorism! Why would airstrikes be needed in combating mere banditry, fhs?
